Kim Mi-young (left), CEO of VON, and Choi Su-yong, former NIS operative.
No matter how I think about it, it's a strange situation. The day before the US and Israel bombed Iran on February 27th, the Jeon Han-gil team and Lee Jun-seok clashed at Fan N Mic on the topic of 'election fraud'.
At the event, Kim Mi-young, CEO of VON, resolutely declared, "Sue me if it's not true!" and pointed to Lee Hae-chan, Go Han-seok, Yang Jeong-cheol, Cho Hae-ju, and even the current Minister of the Interior and Safety, Yoon Ho-jung, as the ringleaders of election fraud, following Kim Dae-jung and Nam Min-woo. However, three weeks later, there have been no lawsuits, let alone any complaints from the 'Gyae-ttal' (loyal supporters of Lee Jae-myung).
Something similar happened again. Choi Su-yong of 'Gongjakgwan TV' visited Singapore the day after President Lee Jae-myung bombed Iran, on March 1st, and revealed that 164 trillion Korean won, the KF-21 fighter jets that China so desperately wanted, along with advanced weapons like the Cheongung and Hyunmoo missiles, were handed over to China.
President Lee Jae-myung rebuked this at a cabinet meeting, calling it "absurd," and urged for a strict investigation. Even the Democratic Party's Representative Chung Chil-rai raised his voice, stating that Jeon Han-gil, who broadcasted this, should also be reprimanded. However, there has been no news of the Democratic Party or Lee Jae-myung suing or filing complaints against operative Choi Su-yong.
What's even more incomprehensible is that as the opposition party, why isn't anyone demanding an explanation from the President and Chung Chil-rai as to why they haven't filed lawsuits when such a favorable opportunity arose? Truly bizarre!
